Billy Jam, I am now completely addicted to that Mr. Bandman song you played last week. I had a credit at Amazon and got the High Decibels EP for like fifty cents. Some of the best 50 cents I ever spent.

Thanks for the props on "The Galway Formula" last week dj spiderman. That was Jimmy P's creation. I just handed him the original version I made and he did his magic.

Billy Jam:
Good afternon, Happy Valentine's! This show is dedicated to all the couples who got married in the past year including WFMU listeners Jay + Kimzilla who got married in NJ last Sept 12tn and Acco and Top Bill (pictured on playlist at ceremony) who got married in Japan on July 5th (party on October 4th) and who made a special record for the ocassion which will be the featured track played in the next hour of Heart themed songs for Vday on Sunday.........

Billy Jam:
To me the ultimate act of love is to make a hip-hop record for your wedding as Top Bill and Acco did with this song right now "The Coupling" feat. Shing02 and Emi Meyer. They pressed up 300 copies and gave them to their friends. They are not for sale but there will be some as prizes during the upcoming Marathon on this show. Of the record Acco wrote and told me this: "You know Baumkuchen?
In the Japanese custom, we give Baumkuchen as gift at a marriage party.
The Baumkuchen look similar to the rings of a tree .
This mean a happiness to eternally.

When I was a child, my mother told me that
"An old vinyl grow into Baumkuchen, it's very delicious." :D lol"

I'm a lone single playing my own tune
been around the block on airwaves, got my own groove
harmonies to soothe the mind like soul food
call me a butterfly, so easy to move
then an unseen hand selects you to be on a record
a fate that effects you, infinite reverb
no time to rewind
this is real kid, need I remind?
oh but the whole nine not knowing who you're coupled with
the last one, fourth down and inches
etched on a lacquer, stamped on a master
pressed on a white label, the turntable
seal is broken, placed on a platter
the needle drops, face against a slip mat
static precedes the most gorgeous track
could it be forever we're back to back

in the groove of my palm
the other side of a coin
like the shape of a bird
in the winds of the sea
here you were all along
in the breath of my song
now let us fill our lungs
and clear our ears
forget the wait it was worth the years
'cause every A needs a B
every B needs an A
every A needs a B
every B needs an A
will you be my A?
and can I be your B?

happy together...
side A...
side B...
side by side...

ciao!
Bill & Acco
